We realize that there are numerous opportunities for full development of personality as students of our school. Looking for an outlet to satisfy our interests, we find various clubs in which we can fulfill those ambitions. We develop that creative ability to write through the Ritrote Club. Each month, our prize pos- session is placed in a familiar basket, with the hope of winning at least one honorable mention. To be poised and ladylike is another one of our goals, and through the Ushers Club, we attain these assets. Seating those who attend school programs and performances is a helpful as well as an enioyable experience. Peeking into the library, we find the monthly meeting in session. But we are welcome any time, for the library is a warm, inspiring place where the phrase quiet please is cleverly implied. We, as students, know the true value of time spent in reading a good book.
